I find it apalling that Mir is to be destroyed. If it is to be because of a
lack of money, then why not sell (money potential) it to the US or to a
satellite company (like Loral, etc.). At the very least you could use it as
a communications relay.
When it hits the ground (or water), can people keep what they find?
